10,273 SCIENTOLOGISTS GATHERED ON NOVEMBER 17, 2013 for the dedication of the Flag Building, the new Scientology spiritual headquarters. Mr. David Miscavige, Chairman of the Board Religious Technology Center led the dedication, culminating a weekend of monumental events that marked the launch of the Golden Age of Tech Phase II.

THE ARCHITECTURAL TRIUMPH IS CONNECTED BY SKYWALK to the Fort Harrison, hub of the Flag religious retreat since 1975.

ON NOVEMBER 17, 2013, THE CEREMONIAL RIBBON FELL ON OUR NEW CATHEDRAL. The building spans an entire city block and has the capacity to deliver auditing and training to thousands of Scientologists every day.

THE RIBBON-CUTTING CEREMONY WAS LED BY MR. DAVID MISCAVIGE, Chairman of the Board Religious Technology Center and ecclesiastical leader of the religion. Joining him in celebration were 10,273 Scientologists who packed Fort Harrison Avenue and Pierce Street for the festivities.

“THIS CHURCH WAS BUILT OF AND FOR SCIENTOLOGISTS. It was built exclusively to welcome Scientologists across the threshold of the top of our Bridge. So, when the ribbon comes down and we welcome you, the building will have begun the mission for which she was intended. At which point, it is you who will imbue the spirit into her steel and stone, whereupon she comes to life—forevermore.”—Mr. David Miscavige, Chairman of the Board Religious Technology Center

THE GRAND ATRIUM FEATURES LIFE-SIZE BRONZE SCULPTURES of the principles and practices of the Scientology religion. The travertine used throughout was quarried in Italy and each piece was hand selected by artisans. The arched windows are topped with framed panels of translucent honey onyx.

“FROM THE SECOND YOU WALK IN THOSE DOORS, through the lobby and through every single space, auditing room, hallway and office, you’re met with utter perfection.” —C.J.

THE SEA ORGANIZATION MUSEUM is dedicated to the history and legacy of Scientology’s religious order. The museum tells the story of the formation of this group and contains the largest collection of artifacts ever assembled from the Apollo, Flagship of the original Sea Org flotilla.

“IT IS NOT JUST BEAUTIFUL, but it is also the delivery lines that are in place and the tech embedded within these walls just makes it all cohesive and perfect. The whole building is magnificent!” —I.T.

THE MAJESTY OF SCIENTOLOGY:OUR 21ST CENTURY CATHEDRAL

NOVEMBER 17, 2013

10,273 Scientologists.

One perfectly poised ribbon.

One ceremonial stage.

Welcome to the crowning accomplishment at the top of our Bridge.

“My fellow Scientologists, the best on the planet now awaits you. For the doors to your Flag Building are open and I officially invite you to cross the threshold to a whole new world.” —Mr. David Miscavige, Chairman of the Board Religious Technology Center

In grand opening ceremonies attended by 10,273 Scientologists, the Church of Scientology dedicated its new international spiritual headquarters—the Flag Building—on November 17, 2013, in Clearwater, Florida. Mr. David Miscavige, Chairman of the Board Religious Technology Center and ecclesiastical leader of the Scientology religion, led the dedication.

All began with the launch of the crusade in the name of Ideal Organizations, now spanning five continents. What followed was the recovery of the very foundation of Scientology and the Golden Age of Knowledge; next, the recovery of every L. Ron Hubbard Introductory Route at the entrance gates to the Bridge; and then, nothing less than the recovery of the Bridge itself from bottom to top, ushering in our Golden Age of Tech Phase II.

It truly is a golden age complete, with the release of L. Ron Hubbard technical breakthroughs never previously available—the Super Power and Cause Resurgence Rundowns—and the opening of the Flag Building, the Ideal Org of Ideal Orgs.

Here is a place of learning, a place of wisdom and a place of spiritual freedom transcending any known realm. Here is a place where we can now realize L. Ron Hubbard’s vision for a better world at a magnitude commensurate with the technology itself.

This is the cornerstone of that new and better world.

This is the majesty of Scientology.

This is our cathedral.
